    Note

    This is a poet's adjective, built simply from willow plus -ed in the sense of furnished with willows. In William Collins's Ode to Liberty the phrase is dwell in willowed meads, and the word still belongs to verse and lyrical prose rather than talk. It goes before a landscape noun, banks, meads, meadows, where plain prose would say lined with willows.
